It was AMAZING.
Firstly, Andreas is a sweetheart. He was always checking up on us to make sure everything was alright.
The day of our excursion, we... read more went to multiple iconic islands and swimming sites in which we had the best time ever in the transparent blue and turquoise waters.
After some time, Andreas cooked us a delicious meal with all the fresh fish he caught the same morning. The soup and fish were amazing. We ate until we were full and he kept insisting for us to have more.
He didn’t see us as customers, he saw us as guests and to us that is one of the reasons we felt such at peace during this experience.
We LOVED it and HIGHLY recommend it to any couple, family or single traveller!
26/08/2022My wife and I travel many Greek Islands and always take boat tours. This by far was the best we ever did. This is for a several reasons. 1) It's... read more a small boat so only a few other tourists will be with you on the boat, no party boat chaos. 2) The crew were happy, helpful and made us feel very welcome. 3) The route the boat takes is excellent, and many stops for swimming. 4) The atmosphere was never rushed. 5) The experience of seeing fisherman at work, and being able to participate in the experience was fantastic. 6) Actually eating the fish that you catch that day. 7) The price - very reasonable considering everything is provided and the meal is excellent.
Some tips - 1) During the summer the winds can make the sea a little rough. My advice is call Andreas to discuss when the boat will go to Polyegos because this is the tour you must do to have the best experience from Pollonia. 2) As the boat is a fishing boat there is not much storage, so pack lightly for the trip, take just the basics (a towel and sun lotion is basically all you need). 3) Again it's a working fishing boat, so I do not recommend very young children for this trip. Ages 10 or over would be fine.
Many thanks to Andreas, Andreas and Marios. It was brilliant. If you remember my wife was the opera singer who sang while she was putting the nets in the water :)
16/08/2019We booked a one day tour and did not exactly know what to expect. The second we have arrived we felt it was the right decision and we had a... read more wonderful day with a wonderful host taking care of all our little extras.
Fishing was a great experience and we spend a full day enjoying the nigburing islands with wonderful places to have a great swimm.
Thank you Andreas
21/09/2021We had a wonderful time. We appreciated a schedule change to avoid bad weather as we were really excited about the trip. It was just the two of us and... read more one family, so it felt very relaxed and private, unlike a party boat. We do recommend avoiding bringing small children. As others have said, the crew were very happy and helpful, and also flexible around our requests. The pace was relaxed but never dull, and we had plenty of stops for sightseeing and swimming. Fresh fish for lunch at sea is unforgettable. Overall a fantastic way to spend a day and see Milos, and it was also very reasonably priced. Absolutely recommend you do this while you stay in Milos!
24/08/2019My wife and I went on a private tour with Captain Andreas around the island. We stopped at Kleftiko and other beautiful spots, went swimming, ate the lunch that... read more Andreas cooked for us, drank beer and wine, and had a very wonderful time. Andreas is very warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable. The boat has everything you need and it’s definitely a must do when you are in Milos. Amazing to see the island from the boat. Would recommend for anyone who is visiting Milos!
21/09/2022Totally recommended!!
I had the pleasure to make the boat trip around polyaigos with them. We saw stunning beaches as we have never seen before. Moreover, the captain and Andreas... read more were always looking after us and they were super nice. The fish was taken and cooked in front of us so more fresh than an ice cream. The food cooked was super tasty. Unbeatable experience. Regards from Spain and Italy.

The cruise is an all day one starting from Paliochori Beach in the morning. We had a stop for a bath at least of 30 minutes in Tsigrado Beach, Gerontas... read more Beach, Kleftiko Beach and Gerakas Beach. He made us to visit some caves along the path too. The captain sailed along the south coast trying to make us to see all wonderful water along the coast: he is very expert because he is a fisherman in Milos during the wintertime. We had a very long stop in Kleftiko Beach where he offered a delicious lunch composed of salads and pasta with fish. It's offering you all drinks for free anytime you would like, not only during the lunch: juices, beer, coke, water and so on.
The captain is VERY kind and funny, the boat is small so there are few tourists on board so the enviroment is very familiar. You can freely ask everything you need at the captain and he'll make the best to satisfy! The money is VERY well spent! I advice to sail with him because you will not be able to forget easily this "familiar-cruise"!
18/10/2020We had such a wonderful experience with Andreas who is so warm, friendly and full of local knowledge. Can’t recommend enough for a small, intimate and relaxed trip around the... read more beautiful island of Milos!
24/04/2022Today we went for a private tour with Poseidon to and around Polyegos close to Milos island and had a wonderful day. The island and its beaches are fantastic, the... read more geology and the resulting color shades are really thrilling. The freshly caught fried fish meal we had on board was excellent - and perhaps most important: Andreas, the owner, fisher and skipper is an extremely friendly, humerous and warm hearted man. If you go for a trip, go with hIm.
01/09/2021Andreas is very professional. We really recommend this tour in particular because its with a small group of people. You get to see so many beautiful sites on the island... read more and there are stops that are perfect for snorkeling with beautiful clear water where you can see everything. Andreas prepared a delicious dish for everyone with shrimp and pasta and white wine.
09/08/2022This was simply excellent in every way. Small intimate group of people on the boat, totally low key atmosphere and effortless to organize.
The tour takes you to see... read more some of the most beautiful rock formations and colours, pristine turquoise waters and secluded beaches. There are so many opportunities to swim, snorkel and explore with no rush or hurry. The landscape and sea is astonishing.
Andreas is a delightful and charming captain! His dog Ire is an absolute gem and so lovable. Plenty of delicious snacks and drinks provided throughout the day. Freshly caught fish from the net is prepared for the lunch we share, and it's divine. The group atmosphere is real pleasure.
I never expected to have such an unforgettable experience. Thank you, thank you, Andreas !
25/06/2022Our day with Captain Andreas was simply amazing. Our family of five enjoyed nine hours with Captain Andreas during which time we explored the eastern and southern coasts of... read more Milos. We worried nine hours would be too long but it wasn't! The kids really enjoyed bringing in the fishing nets and seeing all the fish, including eel, crabs, and more. We then stopped at numerous beaches on our way to/from Kleftiko. At each stop, we jumped into the gorgeous water and enjoyed snorkeling, swimming, and exploring the beaches. It was so much fun. Captain Andreas is so kind and took great care of us with snacks at most of the stops and all the drinks we wanted. A highlight was the terrific meal of fish soup, fresh fish that we caught that day, salad, and more while anchored at Kleftiko beach. The day was magical and one we will not soon forget!

If you visit Milos you should definitely go to Polonia and do the 'Milos Poseidon Boat Experience'. By far the best day we had on the island. Apart from the... read more fact that price is great, you will also notice that captain Andreas is going over and above to ensure that he provides the best service possible to have an amazing experience! Highly recommended! A 'must do' thing when visiting Milos. …
01/06/2021We visited Milos for the second time this year in June and we were really looking forward to visit Polyegos, a small rocky island near Milos and Kimolos. The agency... read more that rent us our car suggested captain Andeas and they were absolutely right! The boat is a traditional fishing boat. We left from Pollonia and we were a small group of 6 people on board. We sailed towards Polyegos and took a full tour around the island. During the trip captain Andreas was willing to stop or slow down on every spot that we liked for photos and swimming and also recount the story of the islands. The beaches around the island are some of the most beautiful we have ever seen. Crystal clear blue water! Truly impressive!!! It's a must seen place if you visit Milos! During the trip captain Andreas offered us the traditional "ladenia " handmade by his mother and for lunch he cooked us shrimp spaghetti with fresh shrimps that he fished himself and greek salad with vegetables from his garden! Delicious !!! For dessert he offered us fresh fruit. Drinks were also included. Our trip was amazing!!! Captain Andreas was very friendly and helpful!! Worth every penny! The price for the tour was really inexpensive regarding what was offered and the whole experience!! Absolutely recommended! …
01/06/2021In Milos there are places you can visit only by sea. One example is Kleftiko, one of the 10 best beaches in Europe according to Conde Nast Traveller and Tripadvisor;... read more some say it’s among the best beaches in the world. While choosing a boat tour in Milos you’re faced with 3 main options: 1) sailing boat (catamaran or monohull) which -despite the name- will take you there on engine (not sails), cost around 50-70€ per passenger, total of 20 onboard, 2) a super fast and sleek RIB, cost of 1200-1400€ per 8 hour ride of up to 8-10 persons, and 3) Poseidon, a traditional fishing boat, for a total cost of 400€ for the same 8 hour tour, capacity up to 8 persons. Choice #1 you need to account for another 15-20 strangers on the boat, not quite the beat choice for the covid-conscious. A party of 8, two 4-member families, we opted for option 3 mainly due to the tranquility/privacy it’d offer (just the 8 of us), pricing and availability. On the day before departing Captain offered us choice of lunch, either kakavia (fish soup) from freshly-netted fish (we would have casted the nets ourselves in the morning) or home-made shrimp pasta, we opted for the second. We didn’t regret the choice of the specific tour one bit. Captain Andreas took us on a relaxed low-pace trip from Pollonia all the way south and we toured the whole south cost of Milos. We made three stops for swimming, 1st was a translucent white-pebble beach close to the old sulfur mines, after which we were treated to ladenias (local oil bruschetta-like dish with cheese onion and peppers), 2nd was unexpectedly stunning Gerontas (black thin glittering sand beach with a natural arch on one side, castaway stuff) and ultimately Kleftiko, where we anchored , swam in the caves and enjoyed lunch with a magnificent shrimp pasta dish prepared by our captain on-the-spot. All drinks and wine on the house. On our way back we took a last dive just before arriving to Pollonia. We had an unforgettable time and we were treated with great hospitality and friendliness. We would recommend Poseidon, Andreas and the tour without any objection.
25/07/2021What a wonderful experience with Captain Andreas on his fishing boat! Our host recommended him vs the crowded tours, and how right he was! Just the 5 of us on... read more a private tour of the Island of Polyaigos. Having visited Kleftiko as well (on another trip) I highly recommend Captain Andreas & Polyaigos. It was more dramatic than Kleftiko, so if you have to choose between the two go with Captain Andreas. We stopped at several lovely places to swim, Andreas served little bites, pies, then prepared a simple but fantastic lunch of king size shrimp & pasta. His Mother's watermelon pie for dessert was also out of this world. Thank you for taking care of us! Go with Andreas for an unforgettable and authentic day on blue waters, which I haven't seen anywhere!
